Ok so, i am new to linux and ive been finding it hard to get games running, it was only when i was checking the logs to arma reforger when i saw this;

(NOT OK) Adapter 'NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470' does not support feature level 12_0

I'm not completely sure, but i think proton or steam thinks im using a gtx 470 despite having an rtx 3050, and despite having the drivers and it being detected on my pc normally, any help is appreciated.

Hallo guys, Im using bazzite now for about 2 weeks and loving it so far i am using it on my zotac zone handheld and only using Windows because of GeForce now. Is there a way to install a nativ app that Supports 4K 120hz on bazzite? I found the electron app but that only Supports 1080p 60hz

Thanks

I used to play overwatch on windows and never had any problems, I had high fps with good video settings.

I now started playing marvel rivals on linux and I have a max of 35 fps with every video setting set to the lowest, the game also crashes every 15-20 minutes and sometimes even less it's unpredictable.

I have a gtx 1050ti with 32gb of ram. My question is, is marvel rivals the problem or is it linux or a mixture of both?

Hey folks,

I’m ready to ditch Windows and make the switch to Linux, but I’m not sure which distro to start with. I’m looking for something that’s:

• Easy to install
• Modern and sleek in appearance
• Suitable for gaming

I know there are plenty of threads and resources out there, but I’d really appreciate some curated recommendations to help streamline my starting point.

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Wie schon oben gesagt, es gibt kein verdammtes Tutorial welches grundlegende Probleme aufführt, in jedem scheiß Video wird nur behauptet das alles ohne Probleme klappe und man da nur Vorteile von hätte. Erstens, Cachy OS Discover angeblich ganz einfach per Konsole aber nope Fehlanzeige "Melde dich bei Cachy OS" eines der tausenden kleinen Probleme. Open Razer wird nicht geöffnet geschweige denn angezeigt sodass man nichts an der Maus einstellen kann, welche Aufgrund von Bluetooth nur auf Linux alle paar Sekunden die Verbindung verliert was vorher nie der Fall war. Spotify nur über Umwege usw usw.. Als Anfänger einfach nur noch frustrierend. Aber am schlimmsten finde ich das in jedem scheiß Video gezeigt wird das alle Festplatten ohne Probleme gehen würden, was halt faktisch nicht der Fall ist wenn man diese vorher über mehrere Umwege erst einhängen darf, welches dann nach dem Neustart nicht mehr erkannt wird, und die Spiele die runtergeladen worden im Nichts verschwunden sind. Dadurch kann ich diese Festplatte aufeinmal nicht mehr "einhängen". Super. Sitze ich nun da mit 2Tb nicht nutzbarem Speicher und keinem einzigen Menschen der darüber im Internet etwas schreibt.

Vielleicht ist es ganz gut das Linux so klein ist wie es nun eben ist, da ich jedem der auf diese Videos ala " Tausend gründe warum Linux besser ist" reinfällt, die Daumen drücke sein System nicht komplett zu rippen.

place your bets; will we get this as a hotfix in 580 or will we see it in a few months with 585? either way, got a strong feeling that it's actually close now

"" meson.build:90:17: ERROR: Dependency "libsystemd" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake ""
Note: I Have the latest version of libsystemd and CMake but i dont know pkgconfig. Can someone help or is there a better Virtual Machine than Oracle VirtualBox??

TLDR: Your mileage might vary, newer CPUs might not gain a lot of benefits from CPU optimisations; drivers, hardware configuration and possibly your Proton prefix will have the biggest impact.

TSIR (Too Short, I'm Reading):

I just wanted to share some recent experience, after I watched a video showing that on this person's hardware, CachyOS didn't make any difference in performance, and Fedora was even slightly better: https://youtu.be/RlqqLR7Vi_s?si=JHdrzBYD6L_CYdAP

This video was soon after kernel 6.15 was released and my theory was that 6.15 had closed the gap somewhat.

Anyway, I have tried CachyOS, also the CachyOS kernel on Fedora and the CachyOS kernel on NixOS.

I have relatively new hardware – a Ryzen 5 7600X and an AMD 9070.

I found the same results. Cachy was better on one game by about 1 FPS and the 1% lows were the same as Fedora's.

With CachyOS I noticed that game-performance made my CPU really hot, it went from hitting 80 degrees max (usually) to 95 degrees (this wasn't a cooling issue, more on that shortly). So I opted out from using game-performance because the CPU got hotter and I got no gains either.

The kicker is that for a 7600X CPU, a hotter CPU can mean less performance. If the CPU needs to get hotter to boost its frequency, it will throttle itself sooner. The 7600X is built to run hot, it's what it uses to decide how much to crank up its frequency.

Anyway, the gist of it was that the Fedora kernel (currently at 6.15.8) was just fine on my CPU.

NixOS with the CachyOS Kernel (6.16) and mesa-git drivers also performed within margin of error of Fedora and CachyOS.

What resulted in a massive performance increase (15 to 20 FPS in Horizon Zero Dawn), was actually undervolting the CPU and adjust the curves in the Performance Boost Overdrive settings (PBO) in the bios.

Now my CPU hardly ever goes above 60 degrees while running at max frequency, and on top of that I have a performance increase, as I said.

There are tutorials on how to do this, I am not going to give instructions myself because I am no expert.

The other thing that boosted performance (a few FPS for each of these changes, minor increase) was turning on NTsync and use the Proton Cachy (on all distros). Proton GE lagged a bit behind, even when it has NTSync enabled and Proton Cachy was still using Fsync. But, when using the same Proton prefix, NTsync always resulted in a few more FPS.

Also bear in mind that CachyOS might feel snappier when you use your desktop because they sped up the animation of KDE considerably. It's a very common trick, often used in mobile phones.

I am not saying that CachyOS is useless, I'm saying that a lot of the optimisations target the CPU and your specific CPU might not need help. Your mileage might vary, you might get immense benefit. It is also dependent on the games you play.

Also if you cap your FPS in games then some performance optimisations will not have a major effect.

Another thing I should point out – for gaming your graphic drivers will make the biggest difference. My other half decided to use the mesa-git drivers in her Bazzite install and gained 20 FPS in the Horizon Benchmark (if you are curious: you type "ujust mesa-git", Bazzite downloads the drivers into a folder without touching your system's stable drivers. Then you add a launch option for each game you want to use them with in Steam).

I have mesa-git in my Fedora installation so I always run them, but also I know that something can break if I do that (good thing I have a good snapshotting set up).

Custom schedulers might help you out. They didn't for me. Gamemode might help you out (don't use it on CachyOS as they have ananicy). For my Fedora install it always resulted in a slightly lower FPS average and 1% lows.

I could make a benchmarking video but given that now I no longer have CachyOS installed, I wouldn't be able to show those benchmarks anymore.

The games I benchmarked were Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, Black Myth Wukong, Cyberpunk and Monster Hunter.

Black Myth was an interesting one as it was the one game that, while it said the 1% lows were the same as Cachy on Fedora, the absolute lowest frame rate was lower on Fedora. I didn't test that one on NixOS as I wasn't using it at the time.

Another thing to note is that FSR 4 does cause a small performance impact. Example in Horizon, I got about 5/6 FPS less with it on. I'll take that, as it looks better.
